Besides C&C3 mods like The Forgotten and Mideast Crisis 2, has anyone else here managed to create another faction and got the skirmish AI for that faction to work in-game? I have been attempting to get six sub-factions for my KW Reloaded mod to get AI working in the skirmish/MP modes. The good news was that I was able to compile the Skirmish AI files through the AdditionalMaps folder that had "MapMetaData_Global.xml" in it. This winds up having loading the mod correctly through the skirmish menu because of the compilation through the global data instead of static data. I also added a schema file to associate the new factions to be enabled in-game. However, the sub-faction(s) AI is still not affected in-game when I tried to play a skirmish game. I tried loading a mod with compiled skirmish AI files into the C&C3 Worldbuilder. I already configured the Worldbuilder cfg file to add in my mod into the program. My proposal was that I wanted all other factions' AI to apply to all C&C3/KW maps. I need to add six new skirmish factions as AIs, but the problem is I was limited to adding two new players after adding new skirmish players altogether. The faction selection to a new player still does not recognize the new sub-faction(s). I was expecting to see the following new factions to be used in WB such as FactionBlackHand, FactionMarkedofKane, FactionSteelTalons and so on. I cannot use the KW map files to be loaded into C&C3 due to incompatible format.

My understanding was that it was not possible. That's why we renamed the Neutral faction.

Yes--it was a long time ago--but I believe that is correct. I did the AI, and I recall seeing that. CommieDog would have done the renaming.
